Guest Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Hi guys! I'm hoping to be starting the degree this year. For my interview I have to write a paper on 'The role of the practitioner in supporting development'. I have all the most obvious answers but was wondering if anybody has anything a bit 'out of the box' that I might not have thought of! Thanks in advance x
AnonyMouse_47736 Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 A few ideas: Scaffolding Attachment Key Person Approach Inclusion Importance of play and how staff facilitate and promote it Observation, planning and assessment (ongoing and formative) Outdoor play That's all I got off the top of my head, hope it helps!
AnonyMouse_55778 Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Key is working in partnership with parents as they are their childs primary carer/educator - so ways to engage with them and get them to provide information about their childs interests that practitioners can use to extend the childs learning. Also, important for practitioners to have in depth knowledge of EYFS and to keep themselves up to date on changes and developments and current research.

AnonyMouse_23964 Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Good Luck. Despite the hard work it is enjoyable and so interesting - nothing will ever seem the same again!
